The Value of Missouri Southern
Global
Our international mission strives to broaden your horizons. Whether it’s our study abroad partnerships with universities around the globe or our award-winning themed semesters, Missouri Southern brings the world to you.
Personal
You’re more than just an ID number on an attendance sheet. With our low student-to-faculty ratio and small class sizes, you’re a valued member of our Lion community. Develop relationships with faculty and peers that can set you on the path to academic success.
Immersive
What do Crime Scene Investigation, EMS training, a mock courtroom, 3D printers, and bee hives on a native prairie have in common? All are hands-on learning environments and experiences at Missouri Southern. Learn by doing, and gain practical knowledge that can prove invaluable in the workforce.
